1827 or: How I’ve Still Gotten Myself Into This

Salutations™!! Deep sigh… That’s what I just let out when I realized that today is the 1,827th blog post I’ve written since November 1, 2014. Perhaps more because I think there was at least one day, perhaps two, that I wrote more than one for a day. On November 1, 2014, Kristen Daukas and Nick…

Hotter Than Hell Again or: Still a Great One

Salutations™!! Today is the 45th anniversary of one of my favorite KISS albums, Hotter Than Hell. I liked my writeup from last year and I’m reposting it. … It is one of my faves, for sure. It was one of the first albums I ever got in the 70s and it was one of two…

A Dollar Short or: Terrifier

Salutations™!! To be perfectly transparent, I am writing this on Wednesday and not Tuesday as my son, 3B had me watch a creepy, campy and somewhat funny (read: eye-rolling) “horror” film called Terrifier. It involves a clown who makes crazy-creepy faces and beheads, mames, mauls and destroys people that get in his way. It’s really kind…

A Rarity Now or: The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie

Salutations™!! Last night I was trying to get everything done so I will admit that my post was a bit on the short side. But, I forgot to mention that the film I was watching was The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie (1969). It stars Maggie Smith, her real-life husband Robert Stephens, Pamela Franklin and others….

Livin’ Dangerously or: Fargin’ Bastiches

Salutations™!! Per usual, on a Wednesday night, as I do social media stuff for The Less Desirables, I watch either a crappy sci-fi/fantasy film from the 70s/80s or something nostalgic for me. It was the latter for me, tonight. It was 1984’s Johnny Dangerously starring Michael Keaton, Joe Piscopo, Griffin Dunne, Marilu Henner and Maureen Stapleton….

The Next One or: Not So Bad

Salutations™!! So, whilst doing the social media for The Less Desirables, and on the recommendation of Superfan Damien, I decided to watch Heavy Metal 2000. He was right to a point, The storyline is more linear and makes a little more sense, but it’s really just one story and not pieces. It’s not about the…

Falling In or: What Kind of Name is That?

Salutations™!! So, 3B got me to watch a movie that I wasn’t wanting to ever watch. He got me to watch the first Hunger Games movie. I made fun of it because Jennifer Lawrence’s character is named Katniss and others in the movie also have silly names. We watched and I have to admit, I found…

Loc Nar, Eh? or: Heavy Metal

Salutations™!! Tonight’s cheezoid film whilst working is actually something I knew of and saw when I was a kid, Heavy Metal (1981). It’s an animated film based on the sci-fi/fantasy magazine of the same name. I used to look at the mag because there was nudity, albeit cartoon nudity but I’ll admit that even beyond that aspect,…

Prepare the Probe Ship or: Disney’s Folly

Salutations™!! My Wednesday crappy film watch continues this week and it’s from one of my favorite companies, Disney. In 1979, like everyone else, was wanting to capitalize on the success of Star Wars. Space-based sci-fi/fantasy films were “all the rage” at the time. Heck, even James Bond was made into a space movie just because…

Crazy Licks or: Many Kisses (Part 3)

Salutations™!! Here’s the second post today! And yes, this is verbose as was the last. The month of September is a huge month for KISS fans, even if they don’t know it. Why you may ask? Because the month of September is the anniversary month for the releases of TEN KISS albums. I’ve talked about Alive!, Animalize and Asylum….
